North Dublin Act for Palestine will be staging a boycott of Israeli goods at Tesco in the Artane Shopping Centere. The boycott will take place on Sat 23rd October 2010 at 13:00. The purpose of this is to inform customers that a wide variety of Israeli produce is been sold in Irish stores, and that buy purchasing these products they are helping to fund the Israeli war machine. The people of Palestine fully support the boycott movement. On the day a number of activists will enter the store and fill up a trolly with Israeli goods and take it to the customer service desk to make a complaint. A formal letter of complaint will be handed into managment. Outside the store we will have a stall where we will have leaflets explaining the reason for the boycott to give to customers. We will also have a petition for people to sign asking tesco to stop stocking Israeli goods and a sign up sheet for anyone interested in joining our group. | ||||

Irish politicians set to travel on Gaza aid vessel Two TDs and one senator will travel on an Irish ship which is aiming to breach the Israeli blockade of Gaza. Fianna Fáil TD Chris Andrews, party colleague Senator Mark Daly and Sinn Fe¤ in’s Aengus O’Snodaigh have signed up to the 25-person passenger list. They are hoping to be the first Irish parliamentarians to breach the Israeli government imposed ban on aid vessels entering Gaza port. A campaign group headed by Dr Fintan Lane has put a €25,000 down-payment on the vessel, which is currently docked in the Mediterranean. The crew and passengers will be all Irish. Lane was an activist on the first flotilla to Gaza earlier this year. Nine activists were killed on one of the ships after the flotilla was intercepted by Israeli commandos. This new vessel will be captained by Shane Dillon, who was first mate on the Challenger I, which was also part of the first flotilla. Dillon was deported from Israel when that vessel was boarded and forcibly commandeered by Israeli soldiers into the port of Ashdod. Twenty names have so far been confirmed for the 25-person passenger list, with the remaining five to be decided, Lane told The Sunday Business Post. Lane said that the Irish activists were ready to travel by next month, but said a consensus had emerged among participants that the next flotilla would take place in March 2011, to allow more vessels to participate. ‘‘We could have gone in November with six or seven boats, but if we wait until after Christmas, we will have 14 or 15," he said, adding that the vessel would be re-registered under an Irish flag before setting off. The other vessels are due to be supplied and manned by activists from the US, Canada, Spain, Italy, Britain, Sweden, Malaysia and Norway, among others. The flotilla will include the MV Mavi Marmara, the boat on which the activists were shot dead during the last campaign. The Mavi Marmara is currently in Turkey but the interior of the ship has been largely destroyed and will require a full scale refit. Turkish marine engineers have said this will take several months to complete | ||||

Protest at the Egyptian Embassy in Dublin The Road to Hope convoy has been sitting on the Libyan/ Egyptian border for over 1 week now. Act for Palestine demands the immediate and safe passage so the Road to Hope convoy can deliver humanitarian cargo to the people of Gaza. When tourists can travel by car freely through Egypt and a humanitarian aid convoy is blocked, it pretty much says it all. The blockade of Gaza is in a word, unacceptable. Egypt is working hand in hand with the Israeli racist regime. We must Act for Palestine Now! Location: | ||||
